Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

Thanks so much riki! Sorry for not responding to the PM, just saw it!

At first I was "24 pages? Noooo, she isn't trying to go to WSJ, is she?" Then I checked her blog and found that she had done the covers and stuff for the AoNoEx Color Bible and something called "The TimeKillers".

Damn, I need a translation badly! Looks like mostly Toudou and Yukio. Hoping for a detailed mindscrew or Yukio doing a badass maneuver.

Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

Only 24???
C'mon, another short chapter like this one and I'm gonna... dunno, but it'll hurt. Have you seen the raw already, earth? Is it really about Yukio and Toudou? Not that I'm not interested in Yukio's state of mind, but I'd like to see Rin in real action too.

Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

I wish I had. Then I might have not dreamed last night that I read a google translation that translated the spoiler perfectly and was talking about Toudou's specific manipulations of Yukio. Moral of the story: don't read untranslated spoilers right before bed.

But yeah, the spoilers mention Yukio and Toudou a lot, including possibly Yukio acknowledging he hated and loved his brother. But again, it's with the help of Google translate, take it with a grain of salt as I could've easily misunderstood the tenses.

Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

Nooo Thats terrible news! last chapter we only had like 21 pages of actual manga. This month its like 25 -.- we have another hoshino(DGM) on our hands. And dont get me wrong i think this is an awesome manga, but before you get crazy making other projects i think you should work on your manga that got you the popularity to begin with. Too many side projects and you get a manga that never goes anywhere.

Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

half: Kazue is not like Hoshino. Unlike Hoshino, Kazue has had a decent track record of keeping an average page-length of 35-40. I also give Kazue a lot more lenience because unlike Hoshino, Kazue has a standard she holds to. I got sick of how DGM petered out slowly because Hoshino has incurable wrist issues and is making up the story as she goes. Kazue at least keeps the story quality from suffering and returns to the typical 35-40 page lengths after a lot of her additional works are done.

Kazue's blog is here. Actually, her releases this month are really great! Shefinished the work for the AoNoEx Color Bible (I assume it holds all the color pages, wouldn't that be awesome to own!? I love her color pages so much!) and on a book of several of her short stories, including "The Miyama-Uguisu Mansion Incident", the pilot of AoNoEx which you can find online, and "HoshiOta", a short story that we lost the scans for with a protagonist that looks much like Yukio. So honestly, I am not worked up over this.

I really don't want Kazue to go to WSJ; I much prefer her detailed Square chapters. Also, Square is much less intense, and Kazue already has tons of fun balancing her cash cow.

So... I didn't notice, but somebody thought that Kuro was mentioned. I wonder if the water bullet had more of an effect on Toudou than Toudou realized. Hmmmmmm...

I think there might be either of two reasons for this: 1. she is busy work on extra volumes, like series of one shots and color books; or 2. when you look at this month's ToC for Jump SQ, it had six one shots, thus some series have to shorten the pages.

I don't want Ao no Exorcist to move to WSJ because I don't want SQ to be recycle bin for WSJ. SQ didn't really had its own successful series, most of them are from WSJ and MSJ; Ao no Exorcist is first actual hit series that soley came from SQ and I don't want WSJ to take away from SQ.

Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

:/ True, WSJ is quite generic, stereotypical shounen and not very detailed, but I kinda wish Ao No Exorcist was a weekly manga. >.> IT's such a good storyline, and hard to wait for. XD

What about Kuroshitsuji? I know it came from Square Enix, but wasn't it always published in SQ?

And I love your signature btw.

She's busy b/c of the Color Bible (Is it really just the color pages or an official artbook with new pictures? x'3)
But since the anime ended and the movie's starting, she might be busy with that. True, she might not have much a say or writing the plot, but usually anime adaptions or movies need the author to take part in someway. ^^;;

Ooo~! She's released a book of mini-stories called The Time Killers Interesting.

And well, 25 pages is better than absolutely nothing. I'd rather an AWESOME 25 pages which is what Kazue Kato usually gives us, rather than a dull, derp 40-50 pages chapter.

Does anyone know if Kuro's name is written in hiragana or kanji? XD I'm quite curious, cause I can't see the word, kuro in the spoiler.

Kuroshitsuji is serializing in GFantasy from Square Enix since it begin. Maybe you're mistaking as SQ for Jump SQ. stands for Square Enix; actually, SQ for Jump SQ stands for Supreme Quality and a public square, not Square Enix. GFantasy and Jump SQ. are from totally different publishers.

Re: Ao no Exorcist Ch. 29 Spoiler Thread

Yukio pulled a badass. You win Anya.

I so much adore Yukio's "I got you ya son of a bitch" look. It looks like the final water spirit attack failed, and now Toudou's dispensed with the mindscrew and has moved on to just trying to kill Yukio. Issue is, how can Yukio get out of this? I think mentally now he's mostly out of the woods. Physically, Toudou is stronger though and now just wants to kill him.

Loved all the flashbacks (youngest child with issues much Yukio? But hey, he got over it spectacularly). So Bon noticed that Rin is still scared shitless of drawing Kurikara - we've now moved on to the more important main character stuff of this arc.

I was going to ask you what was it that we were discussing so fiercely, because I don't even remember betting. But I remembered. I'm soooo relieved that Yukio made it. There's nothing like a moment when you can love one of your favorite characters even more Kazue Katou (I still don't know which is her name) is a genius.

Although now I feel spoiled rotten.

Ao no Exorcist will be absent on next month's issue.

[Sit's in a corner and cuts herself]

About the new chapter: I love how Kuro keeps Bon in place with one of his tails Rin doesn't need such support, as he's got demon's agility.
Yukio looks like he's about to cry thinking about Rin. So cute...
Bon looks exhausted after casting the spell.
Yukio looks like personification of awesomeness.
Only tamers can summon spirits, right? They did so with the fire spirit. So Yukio is a tamer too? Wow. Go, Yukio, you're going to kick Toudou's ass
